Police have been attacked in fresh clashes in east Belfast as petrol bombs and bricks have been thrown.
Last night, around 500 people were involved in disturbances in the city when violence broke out between loyalists and republicans.
Sky News' Ireland correspondent, David Blevins said that "makeshift missiles" were being thrown as well as petrol bombs and bricks.
"No matter which side you speak to, you hear a different version of events," he said.
"Police are doing their best to keep the rival factions apart, but they are struggling."
Police blamed Monday night's unrest on loyalist paramilitaries.
The violence has been described by some as the most serious seen in Northern Ireland for years.
